Rolling Stones Shopping Bag

Description

A shopping bag I made for my dad to use for his weekly shop.

I loosely followed this tutorial but it’s not lined, so the edges are roughly finished with a zig-zag stitch. I also left off the seams at the top of the handles, making the bag out of one piece of fabric to remove bulk in that area to make it more comfortable to carry.

Material Notes

Calico for the bag
Red thread for the seams and design.

I printed out the tongue design the size i wanted it, then i used my “light box” (glass dining table with a light put underneath it) to trace the shape through with my erasable pen, then stitched over the lines with my sewing machine.
